Event: A Tribute to Jordan: Punk & the Pistols screening, Tues 13th Sept, 6.30 pm, Rio Cinema, Dalston
HEAVENLY FILMS PRESENTS A TRIBUTE TO JORDAN: PUNK & THE PISTOLS
Tue 13 Sep, Rio Cinema, Dalston
6.30 pm
Director: Paul Tickell
Cast: Jordan, John Lyndon, Malcolm McLaren
UK (1995)
In the words of Jon Savage, Jordan Mooney, who sadly died of cancer this April, was ‘the first Sex Pistol’.
A beehived Valkyrie in rubber, spiked heels and Mondrian make-up, she became the figurehead of Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood’s taboo-breaking shop Sex at 430 King’s Road. Starring in Derek Jarman’s transgressive, counter cultural classic Jubilee, she continued to shape punk rock’s musical revolution as muse and manager of Adam and the Ants.
Join us for a celebration of this extraordinary woman and the spirit of ’76 with a rare cinema screening of the definitive (and uncensored) BBC Arena documentary on the UK Punk scene, Punk and the Pistols – the only film to feature candid interviews with John Lydon, Malcolm McLaren and his former-partner in fashion crime Vivienne Westwood. Along, of course, with Jordan herself and a host of other punk luminaries including Glen Matlock, Poly Styrene and Siouxsie Sioux.
Hosted by Travis Elborough, special guests on the night will include Cathi Unsworth, co-author of Jordan’s memoir Defying Gravity, Bertie ‘Berlin’ Marshall, Richard Boon of Buzzcocks, New Hormones records and Stoke Newington Library fame and the filmmaker Paul Tickell.
There will also be tributes and readings from:
Dave Barbe (aka Barbarossa) drummer with the Ants, Bow Wow Wow and Republica and the author of Mud Sharks.
and
Dorothy ‘Max’ Prior, whose forthcoming memoir 69 Exhibition Road: True-life stories from the fag end of punk, porn and performance art is out this November.
Copies of Defying Gravity will be on sale and Cathi will be signing after the screening.
Aidan McManus (Soho Punk Tours and Flipside Radio) will be DJ-ing in the lobby.
